4 Days / 3 Nights
Sedona, AZ
Red rock cathedrals, canyon trails, and high-desert stargazing in Arizona’s most beautiful town.
Why Travelers Love Sedona
Sedona's setting has no real rival in America: the town sits in a natural amphitheater of 300-foot crimson buttes and spires — Cathedral Rock, Bell Rock, Coffee Pot — that ignite twice a day at sunrise and sunset. The red rock country rewards every pace: 200-plus miles of hiking and mountain-bike trails leave from the edge of town, jeep tours rattle up slickrock to panoramic mesas, and Oak Creek cuts a cool, cottonwood-shaded canyon through it all, with swimming holes at Slide Rock State Park. The town itself leans artistic and contemplative — nearly a hundred galleries, the cliff-set Chapel of the Holy Cross, and an International Dark Sky designation that turns clear nights into planetarium shows. Your promotional package places you at a partner resort amid red rock views.

Sedona Questions, Answered
When is the best time to visit Sedona?
March–May and September–November offer 65–85°F hiking weather and the clearest light. Summer runs hot at midday with cool mornings; winter occasionally dusts the red rocks with snow — the region’s most striking photographs.
How far is Sedona from Phoenix?
About two hours north of Phoenix Sky Harbor via I-17 and the red-rock gateway of the Village of Oak Creek — one of Arizona’s prettiest drives.
Do trails require permits?
Most trailheads use a simple Red Rock Pass (day or week), purchasable at kiosks; some popular lots fill by mid-morning in spring, so hike early.
